As a nation of spice lovers there is no union more perfect than that of mirch, masala and crunch. This glorious trifecta is found in the holy grail of snack foods: Chilli Chips. Matchstick potatoes fried until crisp and coated with red chilli powder, salt and (the equivalent of ketchup for all things desi) chaat masala. It's the perfect comfort food, snack option and crunchy topping for anything that warrants a bit of a kick. Chilli Chips have been made famous by college canteens around the country and it pairs perfectly with a chilled bottle of Coke. If you can't handle the heat then stay out of our bag of Chilli Chips!

Keep it cool

Summers are at their peak and it’s getting hotter by the day. The only thing that can rescue us is air conditioning. Although the AC is not the only thing that can save us from the heat (Karachiites at the moment of this going to press are chanting “Where are you, monsoon rains?”) but it is one of the important things. Whether we are strolling in a shopping mall or chilling out at home, we gravitate towards its breezy coolness. Cool drinks or a frozen treat do give us some refuge, though nothing can be compared to the coolness of an air conditioner. What's not to love about keeping cool?
